An ounce is a unit of weight. A fluid once is a unit of volume, equal to the volume of one ounce of water. If you are measuring water, 1 ounce = 1 fluid ounce. If not, it won't.

What is the difference between an ounce and a l fluid ounse?

An ounce (oz) is a unit of mass used for measuring weight, while a fluid ounce (fl oz) is a unit of volume used for measuring liquid volume. One fluid ounce of water weighs approximately 1.043 ounces, due to the slightly lower density of water compared to the general definition of an ounce as mass.

What is the difference between 3 oz volume and 3 oz weight?

One is a liquid measurement and the other is weight. <><><><><> It is technically correct to say "fluid ounce" when referring to volume. The term "ounce" is also, technically, a unit of mass, not a unit of weight. While many people refer to mass and weight equally, they are not the same thing. Also, "fluid ounce" is not specific enough. You need to say "US Fluid Ounce", "Imperial Fluid Ounce", or "US Regulation Fluid Ounce", otherwise your answer is indeterminate.
